Thanks, yeah I got carried away with the chicken manure and added too much in my mix. Shouldn't have added any, I think now. I've only used molasses for most of the flowering period so I'm hoping to see some fading start before long.

Yes, I got these with my last 2 orders, Panama and Peyote purple. I'm waiting to room to open up before starting my Panama, planning to work with those and peyote purp for probably the rest of the year and nothing else.

Hi Ace seeds, I'm in England, how would someone attain an English cut of the Violeter ?..Cheers.

The English Cut is the grower's name.

Get some Violetta seeds from Ace and you too could have the strain!

Hi tiffa, unfortunately I'm not in England, I'm in Spain, so while I've no problem giving out the cut to anyone who asks, I think due to international borders it'll be easier to do as Lester Beans suggests:

He's right, because to be perfectly honest I only ever cracked ONE SEED of Violeta (feminised, there were no regulars back then) and got a champ! So I recommend everyone to get a pack from ACE and try the same thing themselves. Some great examples of beautiful plants on here, truly inspirational stuff!

Peace, TEC

That explains how I once ended up with a damn male fire OG x headband that flowered in only a few weeks under 12/12. Thank you for that little bit of knowledge. I had always wondered how that happened.

I sometimes keep good looking males, usually in tiny containers to keep them small and then I leave them in the flower room to mature and remove them before they get anywhere near close enough to dump pollen and I had one male that was in the back corner of the tent that threw pollen in half the time it should have been possible and it caught me by surprise.

I lucked out because it flowered so prematurely that the females weren't mature enough to go to seed outside of a fast flowering Zak Haze I had, but up until now I had no idea how it happened. My grower buddies didn't even believe me when I told them the thing flowered and dumped pollen in under 3 weeks.

Hello ICMg people :)

I thought I would pop in here and show you my recent Violeta grow. Now these are BX's made by The English Cut, who kindly allowed me to test some of his work indoors.

I popped 5 beans and got 2 females. Both plants were very similar in all ways.

Lovely smell of berries and vinegar with a hint of citrus.

Here are some pics:

I very pleased with the results. I have mothers of both and am running them again now. No idea how to choose between the two ...

Thanks!

Balls are not in clusters like grapes, just one or two on each node. As plants are under 24/0 I guesses that this means autoflowering. No pistils on this one. This boy have balls for one month now and i'm little bit scared that pollen will get somehow to flowering room (in another room in my apartment) and sex two f2 Panamas in late flowering.

This two boys I'm planning to sex with 2 MalawiXPanama fems too.

Please can you advise me what to do with this male, does autoflowering is happening in PCK or Malawi? Is it useful trait? Does this trait will be passed on f2s on all progeny or just in some ratio?

I never had autoflowering plant, I'm old school grower, Overgrow kid, and just want to make seeds to preserve genetics for future.

Welcome Thorongil,

Sorry for the delay in the reply. Malawi and PCK don't have autoflowering tendencies although usually indica males tend to autoflower if they are rootbound or if the light intensity is weak.
